About the Tenement Handbook

UPDATE: Under One Roof updates tenement management and maintenance covered in the print Tenement Handbook and for modern flats.

The Tenement Handbook is an essential guide to all those who live in traditional Scottish tenements, as well as owners and tenants who live in jointly owned property whether old or new, purpose built or conversion.

The handbook is fully illustrated and tells owners how to manage and repair their property, how to get owners organised, how to deal with builders, architects and factors and the law of properties in common ownership. The Tenement Handbook is also used by housing management professionals.

A fully illustrated technical section explains how tenements are put together and how they are best repaired. Technical drawings reflect the type of construction found on both the East and West Coasts of Scotland. You can review the contents and view sample layouts..
